After a day trip from Tarija, we arrived at Boyuibe, a small town on road 9 in Santa Cruz Department. On the following day very early we departed toward north by a secondary road, several kilometers later we arrived near Parapetí River. Here we had breakfast, accompanied by two local guys that we commented our adventure and we knew a little how it is the life in this one zone.

We continue our trip to East, looking for a path that would take to only 1000 meters of the confluence, nevertheless we never found the entrance to the path found and had to enter by another path that approach us 2500 meters. We left the vehicle and continued on foot during approximately one hour, fighting to find the best place than it lead us to the confluence. Nevertheless after opening a path with our machetes and remove a lot of ticks from our bodies we arrived at 956 meters of the point. It already was noon and to the rate that we advanced it was impossible to arrive.

So without having another option, we returned to the vehicle. In the way to Charagua, we crossed a railroad bridge on the Parapetí River, without doubt an unforgettable experience, still more when in the breakfast the guy we knew commented to us that only it is crossed at night, to not realize height that the bridge has… the photo gives an idea, but is necessary to live it.

In Charagua doing the evaluation of the day, we concluded that the mount is due to enter at the beginning of spring before the season of rains begins. At this time there are less shrubs and the cattle leaves some ways that allow advancing more easily, although then the ticks are very small and it does not feel them when they raise anyway… we return.

On the following day the expedition continued towards the hunting of the confluence 20°S 64°W.
